Cheese & ham stuffed burgers

Lately I’ve been watching a lot of TV shows, ok that’s not true – I’ve been watching a lot of TV shows for years now. But honestly there are so many on my list, so I’ve turned to TV shows and stopped watching movies. My friends always joke that I don’t know any of the upcoming movies, especially sequels – like a month ago we made plans to go and watch John Wick 2 and I didn’t even watch the first one, fortunately it was a kind of movie you can explain in less than 5 min. But when it comes to TV shows I know what I know.

This year I came across the first season of a new comedy called The Mick, I already knew Kaitlin Olson as an actress from It’s always sunny in Philadelphia and I love that show. I’ve been waiting for all of the episodes to come out so I can binge watch with friends and it paid off. Season 1 was crazy, bloody, hilarious, something new, dark, sarcastic, fast and explosive. All in all I think it was great and had a really great time with friends.

Since my friends came over there was something I had to cook, because what kind of a host would I be if I didn’t offer something to eat. My friends love burgers so I decided to make Stuffed burgers with ham and cheese because they’re easy to make, it doesn’t take you all day and they’re a great party food. Check out the recipe, surprise your friends with these tasty burger patties and have a great time!

Place a slice of ham and cheese on the burger and fold it in half forming a burger filled with ham and cheese.

Grill the burger over medium heat on one side for 5 – 7 min, the flip it and finish it by grilling it for another 5 – 7 min.

Looks delicious! My dad used to put a piece of cheese or butter in the middle of ground meat patties for us when we were kids! Very nostalgic!! The addition of ham sounds great! I will have to make some soon!

Perfect burgers for friends! In Minnesota, we have the Juicy Lucy cheese stuffed burgers – restaurants are always trying to outdo each other with the best. Never thought to add ham, but that’s a great addition!
